Crypto Weekly (29/01 – 04/02): Bitcoin Sideways, Altcoins in Bloodshed

Market situation last week

Over the past week, Bitcoin exhibited limited volatility, maintaining a price range of 41800 to 43200 from the beginning to the end of the week. This price stability reflects Bitcoin’s hesitation, with no clear signs of a significant price surge leading up to the Halving or a continuation of the adjustment following the dip from 49000 after the Bitcoin ETF news.

Despite Bitcoin’s sideways movement, most Altcoins experienced pronounced corrections during the week. Many Altcoins saw adjustments of several tens of percentage points, causing concern among numerous investors.

While many Altcoins were bleeding, there was a glimmer of joy for the Airdrop community as the Jupiter (JUP) project on Solana announced an airdrop for participants trading on this DEX platform. The Solana ecosystem continues to be a vibrant community within the crypto space.
